摘要:
A metallic wiring film, which is not exfoliated even when exposed to a plasma of hydrogen, is provided. A metallic wiring film 20a is constituted by an adhesion layer 51 in which an additive metal is added to copper and a low-resistance metallic layer 52, which is made of pure copper, is disposed on the adhesion layer 51. When the additive metal made of at least one of Ti, Zr and Cr, and oxygen are included in a copper alloy which is in the adhesion layer 51 and a source electrode and a drain electrode are formed from it, copper does not precipitate at an interface between the adhesion layer 51 and the silicon layer even when being exposed to the hydrogen plasma, which prevents exfoliation from occurring between the adhesion layer 51 and the silicon layer. If the amount of additive metal increases, the adhesion layer 51 cannot be etched with an etching liquid for etching the low-resistance metallic layer 52, so that the maximum additional amount to permit the etching to be performed is the upper limit.

A paperboard three-dimensionally molded pallet having sufficient rigidity in its load carrying surface and load bearing strength in its leg portions. The pallet is so designed that when it is finally treated as a waste, it can be recycled as new paperboard three-dimensionally molded pallets or a material for the other paper products requiring rigidity. The pallet comprises a paper-made plate-like top plate member (1) and paper-made cylinder-with-base legs (2). A plurality of through holes (15) is provided in the top plate member (1), and the cylinder-with-base-type leg (2) is inserted into the through hole (15) and then joined to the top plate member (1) with a water soluble adhesive agent. The top plate member (1) and the cylinder-with-base-type leg (2) are produced by placing a water-absorbed plane laminated paper as a raw material in a mold to shape it into a specific shape by thermal dehydration under pressure process.

The present invention provides an efficient thin film forming apparatus which is capable of correcting a film thickness so as to take care of a variation in distribution in the film thickness and to take care of the circumferential distribution of the film thickness, as well as a method for forming a thin film using this film forming apparatus. The method comprises the first step of first forming a thin film to a predetermined percentage out of thickness through an opening 8a in a shutter 8, the second step of then using a film thickness monitor 10 to measure the distribution of the thickness of the thin film formed in the first step, and the third step of reducing a film formation rate by an opening 8b in the shutter 8 between a substrate 4 and a sputtering cathode 6 as compared to that of the first step and correcting the thickness of the thin film by an opening 13a in the first film thickness correcting plate 13 between the substrate 4 and the sputtering cathode 6 corresponding to the distribution of the film thickness measured by the film thickness monitor 10 in the second step. Then, the second step is carried out again, during which the film thickness monitor 10 is used to measure the distribution of the thickness of the thin film formed in the third step. Further, the third and second steps are repeatedly carried out.

Provided is a metallic wiring film which is not peeled away even when exposed to a hydrogen plasma. A metallic wiring film is constituted by an adhesion layer containing copper, Ca, and oxygen and a low-resistance metal layer (a layer of a copper alloy or pure copper) having a lower resistance than the adhesion layer. When the adhesion layer is composed of a copper alloy, which contains Ca and oxygen, and a source electrode film and a drain electrode film adhering to an ohmic contact layer are constituted by the adhesion layer, even if the adhesion layer is exposed to the hydrogen plasma, a Cu-containing oxide formed at an interface between the adhesion layer and the ohmic contact layer is not reduced, so that no peeling occurs between the adhesion layer and a silicon layer.

An electrode film, which is not peeled off from an oxide thin film and in which a copper atom does not diffuse into the oxide thin film, is provided. A wiring layer is composed of a high-adhesion barrier film 37, which is a thin film of Cu—Mg—Al and a copper thin film 38; and the high-adhesion barrier film 37 is brought into contact with the oxide thin film. When a total number of atoms of copper, magnesium, and aluminum is set to 100 at %, if the high-adhesion barrier film 37 contains magnesium in a range of between 0.5 at % and 5 at and aluminum in a range of between 5 at % and 15 at %, then wiring layers 50a, 50b, can be obtained, whereby the adhesion and the barrier property are compatible with each other, adherence is strong, and a copper atom does not diffuse.

A metallic wiring film, which is not exfoliated even when exposed to plasma of hydrogen, is provided. A metallic wiring film is constituted by an adhesion layer in which Al is added to copper and a metallic low-resistance layer which is disposed on the adhesion layer and made of pure copper. When a copper alloy including Al and oxygen are included in the adhesion layer and a source electrode and a drain electrode are formed from it, copper does not precipitate at an interface between the adhesion layer and the silicon layer even when being exposed to the hydrogen plasma, which prevents the occurrence of exfoliation between the adhesion layer and the silicon layer. If the amount of Al increases, since widths of the adhesion layer and the metallic low-resistance layer largely differ after etching, the maximum addition amount for permitting the etching to be performed is the upper limit.

A technique is provided which prevents an increase in the resistivity of a conductive wiring film. A conductive layer containing Ca in a content rate of 0.3 atom % or more is provided on the surfaces of each of conductive wiring films which are to be exposed to a gas containing a Si atom in a chemical structure at a high temperature. When a gate insulating layer or a protection film containing Si is formed on the surface of the conductive layer, the Si atoms do not diffuse into the conductive layer and a resistance value does not increase, even if the conductive layer is exposed to the raw material gas containing Si in a chemical structure . Further, a CuCaO layer can be formed as an adhesive layer for preventing Si diffusion from a glass substrate or a silicon semiconductor.

摘要:
An electrode is prevented from being peeled from a substrate or a silicon layer. After the surface of a first copper thin film composed mainly of copper is treated by exposing it to an ammonia gas, a film of silicon nitride is formed on the surface of the first copper thin film by generating a plasma of a raw material gas containing a silane gas and an ammonia gas in an atmosphere in which an object to be processed is placed. Since the surface is preliminarily treated with the ammonia gas, the silane gas is prevented from being diffused into the first copper thin film. Therefore, an electrode constituted by the surface-treated first copper thin film is not peeled from the glass substrate or the silicon layer. In addition, its electric resistance value does not rise.
